In the nineteen nineties, one of the most popular rock groups was an Irish rock band called “The Cranberries”. The first time I heard of them though was not in the 90s wen I was a child but recently after I saw them on VH1 in a few countdowns …

I just recently bought the 2009 Fender Stratocaster Standard (Made in Mexico) and so far I have few complaints. Fender is known for its quality and this stratocaster is no exception.
The coat on the guitar protects it from light scratches. It’s hit my belt buckle a few …

I was surprised to see Star Buck’s Coffee Shop selling C.D.’s. I was more surprised to find the Martin Scorsese Soundtrack of ‘No Direction Home’, with Bob Dylan’s music, there. I bought one, in a hurry! In the 60’s, I was in high school, going to college, getting married, …

Ozzy Osbourne is quite simply my music Messiah, the God of all things metal, the Prince Of Darkness! I have seen him live in concert on July 6th in what was truly the most amazing night of my life, seeing my hero and God LIVE why I was only …

I think these guys for the most part are fabulous. I have played violin for 18 years and while I don’t know that they played such a complex song to get them really noticed, they are innovative and smart and I think they have something going. They are cute …

Are You Sure Hank Done It This way is by Waylon Jennings. It seems like he is asking a question about how Hank made it big because he is trying to copy him. I personally don’t think anyone needs to copy how someone else made it to be successful …

Hope is a song by Sublime and the nineteenth song on their debut album, 40 Oz. To Freedom. No pun intended, I will admit that after listening to the preceding track on the record, Date Rape, I was left feeling pretty hopeful for the remainder of the tracks to …

Overview - The Madcap Laughs, Syd Barret’s first solo record after departing Pink Floyd, is an album that sounds absolutely nothing like the work Barrett did with Pink Floyd, it’s surprising that it’s even the same man to be honest. Not only is Barrett’s songwriting a lot simpler and …

Overview - In The Dark, The Grateful Dead’s twelfth effort, is overall just an album that I consider average. I’ll be honest say that there are a few good songs on here, and the opening track really left me hopeful for the rest of the album but I was …

Craig David, who was once considered a protégée to Michael Jackson because of the sales of his first album “Born To Do It” really saw his career take a toll down the wrong street on his sophomore album and the ones that followed.
But in 2012, after jumping in and …

This is an ambitious work from a long-standing fan favorite. When Green Day emerged with silly punk tunes ten years ago, no one would have ever imagined they would rise to such heights. This is an epic work. While it does have songs that are easily …

I am a great fan of this band, and have been for a long time. While several of the songs can occasionally be heard playing in shops, most of the songs aren’t as well known, but can be bought on CDs or on the internet. This particular CD (called …

Overview - A Saucerful Of Secrets, Pink Floyd’s second effort, basically abandons the extremely psychedelic, experimental, and chaotic tone that made their debut record, The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn, what it was. Although the band still does have some experimental parts, and creative at that, the mood …

I’m a progressive music lover and a long time fan of Dream Theater. But suddenly it occurred to me that I was simply not enjoying their music anymore. I started hauling the web for similar artists to Dream Theater. Some came up too metal, others too technical, and others …

Original of the species is one of the songs featured on the “How to dismantle an atomic bomb: CD which was released by the Irish rock band, u2. I just loves the way this song begins with just a drum and the piano in background. This is also another …

One of my favourite musicians when I was much younger was the musician Sheryl Crow. At the time though, I didn’t know what her name was and so I spent years upon years trying to figure out who it was that sung her songs. In fact, I didn’t even …

Watered-Down Love is a song by Bob Dylan which appears on his record Shot Of Love. The track starts out with a very upbeat sound, as do many of Dylan’s songs from his religious period, and Dylan sings in a melody which sounds unnaturally poppy in my opinion. To …

Future Reflections is the final song of MGMT’s second record, Oracular Spectacular. I will admit that when I first heard this song, I didn’t really like it, but it has grown on me since then. Opening in an energetic fashion before transitioning into a far more melodic section, the …

I rented this concert dvd from Netflix, because I have long been a fan of Jon Anderson’s music. While I was born a little late for the “Yes” era, I do appreciate the quality of their music, and of course the front man is one of my favorite …

One of my guilty pleasures is listening to dance music rave, euro-dance and euro-pop from the nineteen nineties. I guess it’s a little strange judging from my personality and my other likes and dislikes, but I believe it stems from me hearing it so much, and liking the dance …

Overview —“ Jesus Of Suburbia, the final music video released by Green Day for their album American Idiot would have to be the one video throughout all of Green Day’s career that I can call my personal favorite. I honestly believe that this is Green Day’s most ambitious music …

Aaliyah ft. Ginuwine, Timbaland, and Missy Elliot
“One In A Million (Remix)”
One In A Million
Blackground/Atlantic

Mountains Of The Moon is a song by The Grateful Dead which appears on Aoxomoxoa. The track starts off in a very melodic fashion and opens up with a nice rhythm played on what sounds to me to be a harpsichord. Garcia sings along with this rhythm as an …

Tri-Polar is the third album by the australian pwer-trio Sick Puppies.
As always one of the things that stays up on this album are the bass lines, some not for it’s level or difficulty, but for it’s creativity and the way it fits the song, i guess that the best …

Alanis Morrisette’s ‘Jagged Little Pill’ album is by far one of the most popular and enduring albums to have debuted in the mid to late 90s.

I like it, I love it by Tim McGraw is my favorite song because it is my friends ring tone and he is in love with country music. This song is so romantic because it talks about how much this guy likes this girl and how much he …

My husband gave me this perfume as his present last Christmas. I have never tried this perfume before until he gave one to me. Its scent is not something that I will get addicted too (unlike the J’Adore which scent is very addictive, ahhhh!). Its alright, but …

I never used to even know who N-Dubz were let alone be a fan of them. They have a pretty lead singer in Tulisa which is always useful for your popularity and two lads, Dappy and Fazer, Dappy is a white lad, though you would not guess this by …

Whenever I am singing in our videoke, I like to sing this song as it is easy to sing because it is slow and easy to sing. I am not aware of the meaning of the song even how old it is, for me it is an easy song …

I am not a korean, I am just one of the many filipino fans of the rising star korean girl pop group 2ne1. One reason why I like this group is because of Sandara Park who is now using the name Dara when she joined 2ne1.
I am really …

Donuts is one of the most imaginative and important CDs of the last decade. Although it is very unnoticed and underground, I consider it to be a classic and very important. It’s extremely imaginative and I’m positive in the near future, maybe in another decade or so, J Dilla’s …

If you have never heard of Sonic Youth, if you are not familiar with their music, Rather Ripped is the very best album where you should start getting to know them. Before they released Rather Ripped, Sonic Youth have been an active band for twenty five years, and Rather …

I was like having a mini debate with my work colleague the other day on why we should or should not get Greatest Hits by Mariah Carey. I for one, think that one should, especially if you have ever love to listen to Mariah’s tracks. Then you should …

Led Zeppelin’s Houses of the Holy is one of the bands greatest accomplishments. The mellow blues styling mixed with the energetic rock and roll makes for a truly enjoyable and uplifting musical experience. Not only is every song perfectly orchestrated, but the overall flow of the CD and …

Take some urban music, and give it a tribal undertone and you’ll have a good bit of the sound that is Aurlar. This is the first album by MIA, and its a doozy. When I first heard this album i was reminded of the type of world …
